They must remember the glorious history of the Cause, which
... was established by dedicated souls who, for the most part, were neither
rich, famous, nor well educated, but whose devotion, zeal and self-sacrifice
overcame every obstacle and won miraculous victories for the Faith of God...
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 29 June 1941 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to the
National Spiritual Assembly of India and Burma, published in Dawn of a New Day)
